You can still download after reaching the limit.
Highlighting all the files & click "Download selection" underneeth does the trick smiley
Must say the download speed is greatly decreased though.
P.s.: I've noticed that even before the limit is reached. After the 25th download or so, the download speed suddenly is much slower.
Anyone else experiencing that?
01-27-2024 at 3:40 PM
My advice is to make a list of all the maps/resources you want to download in 1 session and sort them by size.
Start your download spree with the biggest filesizes & work your way down the list.
Reason is the reduced download speed afterwards.
01-27-2024 at 3:44 PM
I'm pretty sure that's a bug...
Why is there a limit in the first place if you can circumvent/bypass this restriction.
01-27-2024 at 3:48 PM
Ah yeah, by using the "Download selection" method, all the files are in 1 place inside the winzip so you have to manually create the folders, ( like "gfx/env", "maps", "models", etc ) and even maybe subfolders if required.
01-27-2024 at 3:58 PM
Best not to try to bypass the limit, it would be sad to lose 17buddies due to server costs.
01-27-2024 at 4:39 PM
I'm not mass downloading anymore.
And back in time when I was, I did not know this method either, so I was stuck with the limit as well & came back on another day.
01-27-2024 at 4:56 PM
Maybe Arkshine can solve this bug? I dunno if it's a complicated issue or not? I'm a total noob on that front.
Add check for IP when clicking "Download selection" in order to prevent the bypass...
So basically the same as the big red download button.
